educational goals are an inspiration to every Texan, and they are 
truly deserving of our admiration and praise; and
	WHEREAS, The salutatorian of Roma High School's Class of 
2005, Abraham Pena, has demonstrated a thorough understanding of a 
wide range of subjects, from math and science to language arts and 
social studies; and
	WHEREAS, In addition to the pride inherent in being 
recognized as the second highest achieving student in his class, 
Mr. Pena will undoubtedly continue to inspire others at The 
University of Texas at Austin, where he intends to pursue a degree 
in linguistics; and

resident reflects a remarkable work ethic and a powerful drive to 
succeed, and his rural South Texas upbringing has clearly endowed 
him with a strength of character and a solid foundation on which to 
build his future; now, therefore, be it
	RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 79th Texas
